This volume provides a detailed snapshot of the state-of-the-art of
the field fifteen years after the first extrasolar planet discovery
announcement. The major review articles and contributed papers
allow for vibrant discussions and confrontations between theory and
observations. Datasets of the highest quality, innovative numerical
tools and increasingly sophisticated theoretical models show the
impressive progress being made in our understanding of planet
formation and evolution, heralding the era of 'comparative
planetology' as a new, expanding interdisciplinary research field.
IAU S276 also examines the strategic planning exercises of both the
science community and space agencies and ongoing preparations and
developments of future ground-based and space-borne observatories
devoted to the detection and characterization of extrasolar
planets. This stimulating volume constitutes an important reference
for both young scientists and seasoned researchers, who will
contribute to the frontier of research in the field during the next
decade.
